Actually, I should have said "brain scratching."

VERSION 2.5.2
1. Fixed bug where a STALL process alarm would fire even if the process was stopped as part of the scheduler.

Additional tweaks that came out of #1
2. A scheduled START will enable monitoring (if process monitoring is turned on in main configuration)
3. From the process menu a SEND CTRL-C event will disable monitoring (if process monitoring is turned on in main configuration)
4. From the process menu a START process event will enable monitoring (if process monitoring is turned on in main configuration)

I have everything automated except for the startup of MFAKTC instances. I have four of them, and I would like them to start with the window colors, sizes and positions that arrange them nicely on the screen.

Right now the only way I know to do this is with shortcuts (.lnk files) which allow for the specification (via the LAYOUT tab) of window size, position, background and foreground color. I have the four .lnk files, which point to the appropriate MFAKTC instance, in the Windows Startup directory.

However, this starts them all nearly simultaneously and for some reason causes problems with the EVGA Precision utility which sets the speed of the GPUs. If I start the instances manually with a couple of seconds delay, I don't have this problem.

I know MISFIT can start the instances with a delay. Can I just create a .bat file in each MFAKTC directory that references a .lnk file to pick up the attributes I want? Or should this be done in some better way?

Chuck,
Just configure MISFIT to startup the .LNK files. No need for bat files if you already have working shortcuts.

Maybe a bug, maybe not. MISFIT's work calculator does not accept anything less than 80 in "System GHzDs Output"

yo! Kracker.
Not a bug. It is the designated lower limit for the control. I didn't think anything lower was possible on a modern gpu.

Ah, I see. it was just that I ran into that when I only had my integrated to run on...(~40 GHz) I see, thanks

Unfortunately that doesn't work. The references to the .lnk files are converted to the names pointed to by the link, and the cmd windows open to the default settings.
